I have no idea what they've done with it, if anything, but I bought my upgrade simply to show my support; not necessarily to Boris but to anyone who makes an effort to champion this once legendary piece of software.

Not to be confused with this:

How do we know what to not confuse it with when we don't have a link to the correct ACID?

ACID DJ (8 tracks) was the first piece of music software I ever played around with in 1999.
Amazing to see the GUI & Mixer have not changed since then.

Definitely impressive to keep this name around.

In the announcement, I wish BorisFX had said something about legacy bugs being fixed. In at least one announcement for Samplitude, they did mention something about improvements and optimizations.

Maybe we need to check the Magix forums to see if any people there have been testing the new version for bugfixes.

Aside from that, it seems that Acid Pro might now be decoupled from the Magix SoundPool system, where people could buy loop packs and even get a bunch of them for free with the DAW, but then have to pay an additional fee to use them commercially.
